Adjustment of Status - I-485
Fields marked as * are required.
I-485 Approved!
Hi Everyone - I know I have checked this forum daily & weekly for years now for signs of hope, so I wanted to put my case out there for you all! Good news last week for me after what felt like an eternity:
EB2-NIW – National Benefits Center
Canadian
Priority Date: 12/18/2018
I-140 Approved: 11/9/2019
I-485, I-131, & I-765 Filed: 12/24/2019
1/27/2020: Biometrics Completed
3/13/2020: I-131 – “Case was Updated to show fingerprints were taken”
4/10/2020: RFIE for I-485 – Request for I-693 Medicals
4/21/2020: I-485 “RFE Received”
4/22/2020: I765 “New Card Being Produced”
8/6/2020: I485J Filed: Adjust to new employer
12/11/2020: I-485 – New Card Being Produced!
During the process it felt like a black hole of information flow. I could never get updates from USCIS, a lot of policy unknowns, and no real reason for timing. I never had my case moved to a field office, no notice of an interview scheduled or waiver. I had one RFIE for medicals and that was the only request. I filed to change employers when I moved over the 180 day mark. That was super scary especially when I didn't hear anything at all.
Then, on Friday, a simple email showed up saying "New Card Being Produced." It was a little surreal!
I started the application for my i-140 in April 2018. So, after 2 years, 8 months, and 10 days I am finally on the other side!
Good luck everyone!
